Nor HOW much but how little the
average snti-Mormon editor knows Of
Utah and its people is developed as
soon as he begins to talk about matters
and things out this way. Here is the
New York Mail and Express which per-
lhaps devotes more editorial space to
discussion of Mormon affairs than any
other New York paper, is eternally
getting off wrong" on the question. If il
Is possible to 60 wrong the editor of the
Mail and Express will steer clear of the
right, never telling the truth about any
thing out here, unless by error. Here
is fair example of his peculiar manner
of doing things. These are two editorial
paragraphs intended as comments on the
Dr.. Crawford case, Washington: at is
very well to punish violations of the
Mormon law In Washington; but the
country would like to hear of some con-
victions in Utah. at must be put
down as one of the curiositles of legis-
lstion that the Edmunds' law should
make its first bull's-eye in Washington
and not in Utah. The evidence that
the centre of gravity of Mormonism is
at the national capital is worth stten-
ton"
Inasmuch as there have been many
convictions in Utah of violation of the
Edmunds law, several hundred Nor
mons having suffered the severest
penalty named by the law, and the
facts having been published by the
Mail and Express in its news columns
during the past five years, its remarks
above quoted are mean and contempt |
ible to the degree of viciousness.

sadness that we report the death Of
one of our most respected neighbors
and friend, Mr.. Baker, which occurred
last Sunday morning. He has been
quite feeble for the past winter, not but
what he could see to his hens, in which
he took great deal of pride. He was
born in Lyme. N. H., in 1902, making
his age IS years. He married Miss
Lucy Heaton Of Lyme "a years ago,
who is still left to mourn his loss, also
his only daughter, that married Capt.
VIM. Long at who's home he died.
He moved to Fairlee in 1867, and has
been an active farmer until the last
two years. Mr.. Baker was always
much respected for his honesty, kind
ness and noble principles which is the
foundation of man, as his wife said
she never heard him use a profane
word and very seldom show any anger.
Rev. Mr.. Lees of Bradford preached a
very fine sermon, and one could not
but think as they gathered around the
casket and took the last look of the re-
mains and then the beautiful wreath of
wheat, thath had gained the ripened old
age of goodness. He was taken to
Lyme for burial. His wife who is not
quite as old as the departed, is still in
good health and has pleasant home
with her daughter to spend the last
days Of her life which we all hope will
be as many as Providence will permit.
